Celestial Bloom
"It blossoms when stars weep and spirits dance." — Druidic saying from Gleann na bhFéileach
General Information
Type: Rare Magical Flora
Habitat: Found only in Gleann na bhFéileach, Tarnith
Appearance: A translucent flower with six star-shaped petals that shimmer in pale hues of silver, violet, and blue
Overview
The Celestial Bloom is a rare and sacred flower said to grow only in glades touched by the Spirit Shroud and illuminated by moonlight during the
Cycle of Reflection. It is believed to be a gift from the stars or the Veil itself, sprouting in silence where spiritual energy gathers thickest.
Legends say a bloom marks a place where a spirit crossed peacefully, or where a soul once spoke with the divine.
Mystical Properties
Starlight Nectar: The flower exudes a luminous sap that enhances clarity of dreams, visions, or prophecy when consumed sparingly.
Spirittrace Dust: Dried petals can be ground into a powder used in rituals to commune with specific ancestors.
Fleeting Bloom: The flower wilts before dawn unless preserved through druidic rites—attempts to forcibly harvest it often result in spiritual backlash.
Cultural Importance
Celestial Blooms are never picked casually. Instead, druids leave offerings of song, breath, or memory beside the flowers, recording their presence with bone-charms or spirit carvings.
It is considered a great honor to find one, and even greater to witness its unfurling at night. Some say if one speaks their true name near a blooming Celestial, the Veil itself will remember them forever.
